After nine days and nights at the territory of a powerful demon, Heishan, who was leading the wolves, returned comfortably to relax on a large flat rock, lazily basking under the sun.
Although Heishan seemed lazy and contented, in reality, it was adapting to the explosion of power within it from consuming a large quantity of Spirit Fruit. In just a few days, it had gained years of power that a typical demon beast would accumulate over a century.
Whether it was its body size or the Demon Qi that it generated from its flesh and bones, both had increased exponentially in a short period. Using the Ghost-eye Wolf King for comparison, Heishan felt that once it fully adapted, it wouldn't need any backup and could even take on the king in a fight.
Growl~
While lying on the rock and slowly adapting to its newfound demonic power, Heishan suddenly became alert. It emitted an intimidating growl, fixing its gaze on a part of the ground not far from its rocky bed.
